Progress:

At Meadlands every child is given an end of year target for reading, writing, maths and science. The number of progress steps the child needs to make during the year in order to achieve these targets can vary from individual to individual, some children may need to make 5 steps of progress whereas others 7.

Therefore we define good progress as the accomplishment of their personal challenging end of year targets.

Teachers work with senior leaders every half term to monitor the progress all of the children are making, any one who is falling behind is quickly identified and support is put in place. This support might be extra help in class, an intervention targeting specific learning or a meeting with the child's parents to discuss strategies that can be supported at home as well as in school.

At the end of Key Stage 2 the government measure the progress the children have made during their time at school, at Meadlands we have high expectations and once again the children out-perform national averages:

Progress is above national measures, for all subjects for all ability groups.

Progress measures for reading is in the top 5% of schools nationally (2016, predicted 2018).

Progress measures for writing is in the top 14% of schools nationally (2016, 2017, predicted 2018).

Progress measures for maths is in the top 10% of schools nationally (2017, predicted 2018)

The national measure for progress is '0' anything below this is below national standards and above is above! Scores 4 or more points above are often deemed very high performing schools.
